Hey MNC community families, friends, and supporters!
The summer season is coming to a close. It’s hard to believe, but soon we’ll be counting down the days until we’re skiing on real snow…until then though, we have some more rollerskiing ahead of us.
It has become tradition for our Juniors and Collegiate skiers to have a “Rollathon” on one of the final sessions of summer. Some athletes shoot for 100 kilometers, but everyone works toward a long ski regardless of the distance in the end.
The purpose of this post is to announce and invite you to contribute to the first MNC Rollathon Fundraiser, a spin on our big rollerski, and hopefully the start of a tradition that can grow into a bigger event in the future! The goal is to ski a ton, and simultaneously raise money for the MNC scholarship fund. Here’s what you need to know about the event:
WHO: MNC Junior and Collegiate athletes
WHAT: All day rollerski with a goal to push yourself further than before. The last summer training session of the 2023 season!
WHEN: Skiing will start at 8am on August 27 and will be capped at 6pm, a ten hour period.
WHERE: Ferrisburgh Central School, 56 Little Chicago Rd, Ferrisburgh, VT 05456.
WHY: To raise money for the MNC scholarship fund, ski a ton, and have a great time!
How to sign up: You can add yourself to the MNC Rollathon supporter list by filling out the form below.
How sponsorship works: Skiers seek out “sponsors” to help raise money for the club. Sponsors will pledge to support a specific skier on a per-kilometer basis by indicating their athlete on the signup form below. If you didn’t receive this letter from a skier (for example, if you’re viewing this on the MNC webpage) you can sponsor a skier of your choosing who you know will be participating!
Sponsor example: if Skier A skis 50 kilometers and has two sponsors each pledging $0.25 per kilometer, Skier A will raise 25 dollars for the club! The minimum pledge per kilometer is $0.25 and sponsors may cap their donation at a specific amount/distance.
To sponsor an athlete, follow a link to THIS FORM and indicate a skier you’d like to sponsor.
Provide your contact information and pledge amount, and we will contact you once the Rollathon is over. Live updates day of will be posted to the MNC Instagram page!
Thanks so much for your support!
